On the old village cemetery of Ilyinskoye, on a hill, stands a beautiful church dedicated to the great martyr George the Victorious. The architectural ensemble is designed in the shape of a "ship" and consists of a two-story square base with triangular pediments on all four sides. A massive light octagon rises above it, topped with a spherical dome with an elongated drum and an onion-shaped spire. To the east is a classical apse, and to the west is an expanded refectory with a four-tiered 50-meter bell tower, adorned with pediments and large arched windows. The church's decor is simple and concise: the windows are without frames, recessed into the walls. The walls are plastered and painted white. The church and cemetery are surrounded by a simple fence.

The history of the village of Ilyinskoye and the church begins in the 1620s. The first mention of the village dates back to 1628, when it belonged to Prince Mikhail Petrovich Pronsky. At that time, there was a wooden church of St. George in the village, which paid 8 kopecks to the patriarchal treasury, indicating the poverty of the parish. In 1639, Ilyinskoye became the estate of Princess Ovdotya Rostovskaya, and in 1673, of Boyar Prince Yakov Nikitich Odoyevsky. According to the 1678 census, there were 57 households in the parish. In 1799, it was mentioned that the wooden church was built by the efforts of the parishioners and was considered ancient.

In 1810, the construction of a stone church in the classical style began on the site of the wooden church, based on a project from the Vladimir Spiritual Consistory. The refectory was consecrated in 1821, and the main altar in 1823. The refectory with the Kazan and Ilyin chapels was expanded in 1853-1855, and the bell tower was rebuilt at that time. Since then, there have been no reconstructions. The church has always been provided with utensils and icons thanks to the help of local merchants and parishioners. Two icons were transferred from the old wooden church to the new one: St. Nicholas the Wonderworker and St. George. The church keeps copies of the metric books from 1803 and confession lists from 1829. The staff included a priest and a psalmist, who received up to 680 rubles a year. The land near the church was used to provide food for the clergy. Priest Mikhail Solovyov was also a regular missionary.

After the October Revolution of 1917, the church continued to operate. Priest Ivan Egorovich Orlov lost his home during the persecutions and lived in the church basement. In 1938, he was arrested and sentenced to 10 years in prison. From 1936 to 1943, services were not held, but then the church reopened and has not closed since. The temple has preserved its interior decoration and the famous "Argunov carving" of the iconostasis. Since 1989, Father Palladius has been the rector of the church.
